THE ARMAGEDDON GENERATION


And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.(false beliefs about God in Judaism, Christianity & Islam. written some 500 years before Islam, the 3rd arm from the Jewish religious record appeared)
For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth (the 1%, Presidents, Prime Ministers, CEOs, and other Idols of the People) and of the whole world, (the rest of Humanity) to gather them to the battle of that Great Day of God Almighty. (the war is already underway between Judaism, Christianity and Islam leading to the climax of that Great Day)
Behold, I come as a thief. (when you least expect it)
Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
 

Armageddon was derived from Har Megiddo, located in Judea and Samaria of occupied Palestine 2000 years ago. Israel as a kingdom disappeared some 800 years before Jesus walked in that area during the occupation.

Har Megiddo/Armageddon still exists as a physical place in this material world, but is now under the control of temporal Israel re-created from the Bible after an absence of some 2800 years. After all those years, the occupation of Judea and Samaria in Palestine is still an unresolved, violent, open wound in the Middle East and this material world.

   Revelation 16:13-16

Armageddon, which even the most extreme Atheist understands to be the horrific final Battle of the Nations, is a 2000 year old term from the Bible. For those who have eyes to see, Armageddon is taking shape on the horizon developing around temporal Israel recreated from the Bible in this real, non-religious world Today.  Those thinking the Bible is a myth and dismissing it so easily should take a 2nd closer look.

People from 158 Countries have found this Blog and I would estimate 98% were not looking for it, finding it in the results for an increasing number of various search terms through Google or some other search engine. Most people are looking for images of Angels, Armageddon & CanaDa.

The Statistics for the Blog are very revealing as to people’s interests and habits. They tell me which newspaper records are expanded to be able to read, and which pictures people look at in the 80 articles posted to date. Most of the people finding this Blog did not expect to see this world’s current secular political-economic-military realities described in a real world Spiritual-Religious Framework.

Unfortunately, most people just glance and skim, but that’s the way the people are these days. They don’t like to read unless it confirms or affirms their preconceived notions. They prefer to take their information from 30 second sound bytes on  TV, or escape from even thinking about the dire straights the world is in that will effect every human on earth.

Money, Sex, Drugs, Booze, Gambling, Sports & Video Games are the greatest escape for a large segment of our population feeling powerless to change anything, including themselves, and oblivious to the Present Danger hanging over all our heads.

A PRESENT DANGER

 I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walks in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
A people that provokes me to anger continually to my face; that sacrifices in gardens, and burns incense upon altars of brick; Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine’s flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;

Which say, Stand by yourself, do not come near to me; for I am holier than you. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all the day.

Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, says the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.   

Isaiah 65

The following video is the 1st of 9 parts. This is scary stuff so far removed from any reality we have experienced to date.

You don’t have to believe in God to know such scenarios are possible. You don’t have to read the Bible to know this. The TV news is making more people aware Armageddon is shimmering on the horizon, increasingly projecting the word or variations of it to describe many real world situations. The many 2012  type movies subliminally project end times themes to those who don’t follow the news.

The world knows or should know Israel is straining to launch a preemptive 1st strike on Iran starting the war in “self-defence,” the 1st step on the irreversible Road to Armageddon once that happens.

For those interested in watching the whole program, the next part can be viewed at the end of each segment.

Armageddon the word is mentioned only once in the Bible, but since the economic meltdown/Pearl Harbour/tsunami of 2008, the word or variations of it have been broadcast worldwide by the mainline news media along with similar words like doomsday and the abyss.

The fact words like these are now floating in the air may be THE LAST SIGN AND WARNING to the people of the Earth. It is in the self-interest of everyone, great and small, to become vigilant, watch and weigh, so you will not be taken by surprise.

As part of my CV, in 1963, I was a labourer for The Foundation Company of Canada on the Distant Early Warning Line in the Canadian Arctic before spy satellites existed. For those who expand and read any the many newspaper reports chronicling my Mission of Faith in Almighty God spread over many years inserted in this Blog, it is obvious the Foundation is laid, but the Line is no longer Distant and it is getting Late.

What about the event of Armageddon? Most people are not aware Armageddon the word, is derived from Har Mediggo, an actual place in Israel, the epicentre of the Jewish/Palestinian conflict. When Armageddon was introduced into the human psyche 2000 years ago, Har Mediggo was located in the Roman Province of Palestine. The conflict has very deep roots.

Armageddon the Biblical prophecy would be impossible to fulfill until the recreation of the temporal State of Israel from the Bible in 1948.

While the shock and awe of the Gaza war has receded from world consciousness and the front burner of media attention, the war continues below the radar, just simmering until the next explosive event.

Now that the US has already delivered the big bunker busting bombs to Israel, and Israel straining at the bit to use them and start a war with Iran in “self-defence,” the prospect of that leading to Armageddon is very real Today more than ever before this Generation. If we ignore that threat to our existence and way of living, we will deserve it if it comes.

There are too many news reports to ignore. The US & Israel, supported by England, CanaDa and the West, is already conducting a covert, undeclared war on Iran with targeted assassinations of their nuclear scientists, cyber war, sabotage and now economic warfare.  These facts, already in the Public Domain, are calculated to try Iranian patience to the limit and push them into taking some kind of retaliatory action to show how bad they are our governments and media will propagate. We ignore this at our own peril.

Iran and Israel: Comparing military machines

THE NUCLEAR QUESTION? IRAN – DIFFERENT FROM THE REST?

IF Armageddon the event happens, it is starting over there now, building to the climax, where two peoples with different cultures,  both religious descendants of Abraham, are fighting as families do, over the inheritance God promised his children.

My personal reference Bible, printed in 1855, is the same Edition on which Presidents Lincoln and Obama took their Oath of Office. The verse of Revelation above comes from it.

It goes on to list anything that could be bought or sold from the limited items available in those days 2000 years ago, and by extrapolation, everything the Global economy produces Today. Is the buying and selling of the merchandise we all use religious or non-religious?

The G8, the G20, the Presidents and Prime Ministers all see this on the way and are trying to find a money solution. They don’t realize it’s a Spiritual problem

It is firmly established everybody was taken by surprise by the Financial Meltdown-Economic Pearl Harbour-Tsunami of 2008, as the Global economy suddenly went into a free fall. The politicians and economic experts were stunned. No one saw it coming! The Writing Was On The Wall and the whole world could see it for the 1st Time at the same Time.

And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buys their merchandise any more:
The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,
And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.

Revelation 18: 11-13

Are those words in the BIBLE, with all their implications, primarily religious?                      Are they Secular-Atheist-Materialist?

Or do they tell us existence and being in this MATERIAL world is all inclusive, that every aspect of our individual being, Day by Day, is only a small part of the much greater whole?

It is up to each and every Individual to make up their own mind on that. At the end of this fleshy, material Existence, for the short time humans have on earth, the bodies of both believers and non believers go to the grave.

In our Flesh bodies, we will all die one way or another and if there was no chemical embalming, we will all return to the dust of the earth quickly, the very dirt from where the food that keeps humans alive comes from.

Only those flesh beings who have invited the Eternal to live in their hearts, minds and bodies, will see the Eternal Spirit working in their lives Day by Day, knowing at the End of the world for Individuals, and possibly the larger world, as everyone can see the powers of this material world are talking War talk, their Spirit will be returned to the Eternal who gave it. The rest of the flesh ceases to exist forever.

How can the Finite Human Mind reason with The Eternal? Obviously, Fundamentally, Logically, with Patience, Respect, and Reverence. We all have to live with our own thoughts 24/7. Either we are at Peace with them, or troubled, angry and disturbed with them.

It’s been 2000 years since The Eternal revealed the Way in the flesh body of Jesus, The Christ Alpha, to achieve Peace on Earth and bring the Joy and Plenty of the kingdom of Heaven to the world. Bringing the Promised Land to those individuals who HAVE FAITH and Love God Loving others no matter where on the land of earth they live, even if the others around them don’t see it.

As to Jesus, in whom the Spirit of Christ Alpha 1st became known to this world, being fully fleshy human like you, me and everyone on earth TODAY, Christ Omega makes this invitational offer to all humans in the Flesh Today;

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
To him that overcomes will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and AM set down with my Father in his throne. He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Do you have what it takes to overcome, as Jesus himself, in the flesh had to?

Blessed are the Peace Makers, for they shall be called The Children of God.

Then where do the War Makers come from? That is explained in the opening words at the top of this report.

The world leaders, who thought they had power, were terrified when the traditional levers of power were powerless to stop the drastic fall on a slippery slope to chaos as they stared into the abyss for the first time with the 2008 Global Financial meltdown.

Imagine, in a matter of months, the economy and distribution of goods and services just stopped and millions upon millions of people were without jobs, money, or daily necessities taking to the streets with so many guns in the private hands of the public. These are the very fertile grounds that give rise to power and authority for Dictatorships. It is happening now, before the eyes of those who have the eyes to see.

Current government stimulus plans have temporarily slowed down that free fall, but in Truth, they should be renamed Transition plans as it is impossible to go back to the 2600 year old Imperial Babylonian economic system that has been the framework and model for Empires and Nations to this Day.  It is the end of the road for that system of value.

If we dare to face the Future together united as One in purpose, it need not come to Armageddon or the End of the World.

When the Revelation was given 2000 years ago, the writer could not imagine how important the Islamic Middle East with it’s oil would become to all the kings of the earth in our Times.

But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them   WHO SHALL BE heirs of  salvation?       

Hebrews 1:13-14

The dragon wants to see humans destroyed because God gave greater honour to Jesus being fully human, than to the Angels. Lucifer/Satan, the Angel of Light, rebelled against the God of Heaven and the commandment the Angels should serve the humans who are TO BECOME the Heirs of Salvation. Those Angels thought they were superior and should not serve the inferior, an attitude many humans have  Today towards other humans with whom we must share the resources of this finite planet.

The Beast is government of men, opposed and inverse to government of God.

IMAGE OF THE BEAST

The false prophet? The inheritance is given to Abraham and his Spiritual descendents when there was no Jewish, Christian or Islamic religion. All three man made, ritual, traditional religions to the God of Abraham – Judaism, Christianity & Islam – are deceived by the false prophet or the world would not be on the Road to Armageddon.

It is not just a co-incidence that after 2000 years, with Empires and Nations rising and falling, Jerusalem, where Christ was crucified, is at the center of it all. The Roman Governor gave the people a choice? Who do you want? Jesus or the violent insurrectionist, Barabbas? The people chose a terrorist over Jesus, so what can we expect?

Wake up, People! WE can OVERCOME! The End of the 2600 Babylonian Political, Military & Economic system of this world is crumbling before our very eyes. We can ignore it and let it go to the very worst end – Armageddon – or we can change our ways that are leading us to it. The end of that system is inevitable and can’t be stopped. The End of that world is necessary before we can see the New World ahead of us.

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
And I John saw the holy city, NEW JERUSALEM, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said to me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
And he said to me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is thirsty of the fountain of the water of life freely.
He that OVERCOMES shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whore mongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second  death.                                                                      Revelation 21

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will eat with him, and he with me.
To him that OVERCOMES will I grant to SIT WITH ME IN MY THRONE, even as I ALSO OVERCAME, and AM SET DOWN WITH MY FATHER in his throne.
He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.Revelation 3


You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink;

You can lead a person to Knowledge, but you can’t make them think!

THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST: From 19/11 to 9/11


And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he does judge and make war.

Revelation 19:11

His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treads the wine press of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. […] And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.

Other believers might totally ignore these words in their Bibles even when they say the whole Bible is the WORD of God, but as I read the words, it tells me once you get to heaven you might have to return to the Earth to be part of Christ’s Army waging WAR against the beast, and the kings of the earth, (1%, Presidents, Prime Ministers, CEOs, Senators, and other Idols of the People) and their armies.

But then, if you believe in the Book, you can do that while you’re alive on this earth NOW, before you die and get to heaven and have to come back.

I don’t see much of that happening in this world, even with all the wars the kings of the earth are waging, threatening more with FIRE and FURY like this World has never seen before. The spirit of those WORDS are already gone out into the World.

In 1981, I was receiving Spiritual impulses to hitch hike from Ottawa to Whitehorse in the Yukon to draw attention, symbolically, to the rider on that white horse. This was an ambitious 5000 mile round trip journey. Newspapers across CanaDa, including The Whitehorse Star chronicled this Mission of Faith.

1981 saw two other major events affecting power and politics. The revelation of these two events were part of the impulse that moved me to undertake such a long voyage in Faith.

March 30, 1981:
President Ronald Wilson Reagan is shot in the chest outside the C1426-24Washington Hilton Hotel. The president’s press secretary, James Brady, is also severely wounded, and Timothy McCarthy, a Secret Service agent, and Thomas Delahanty, a local police officer, are also shot. The assailant, John W. Hinckley, Jr., is seized at the scene. Confusion arises when Secretary of State Alexander Haig announces on television the he is “in control” while Vice President George Bush is flying back to Washington.

May 13, 1981:
Pope-John-paul-II-shotPope John Paul II is shot and seriously wounded as he rides in an open car through St. Peter’s Square in Vatican City. Two women tourists from the U.S. are also injured by bullets during the attack. The gunman is captured and identified as a 23-year-old Turkish terrorist.

And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

And he does great wonders, so that he makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

And deceives them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, (gun) and did live.

Revelation 13

Both the Pope and the President survived the wound by the sword (gun) and did live.

Whitehorse StarFast forward twenty years to 2001 and like everyone else in the world, I was shocked to witness the event of 9/11. It brought back the memory of the mission 20 years earlier. The only thing I said to everybody I came in contact with on 9/11 was, “The world as we knew it ended Today.”

On September 13, 1976, The Kansas City Times recorded my visit to the city and The Republican National Convention in the 1st of two reports where I identified the US as being the latter day Biblical Babylon. Those original newspaper records can be seen in the 1st report of this Blog, ‘From the Revolutionary Spirit of ’76 to the Revolutionary Spirit of ’11.’

Circumstantially and Spiritually, in my view, what happened on 9/11 is described in chapter 18 of the Book of Revelation.

And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
For ALL NATIONS have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth (1%, Presidents, Prime Ministers, CEOs,  and other IDOLS of the People) have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues.
For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she has filled fill to her double.
How much she has glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judges her.

And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, (the smoke of her burning was not put out until April 2002)
Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is your judgment come. (It took 1 hour for the World Trade Towers [merchants] to come down)

And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buys their merchandise any more:
The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,
And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. (the economy)

The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,
And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!
For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every ship master, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

AND IN HER WAS FOUND THE BLOOD OF PROPHETS, AND OF SAINTS, and of ALL THAT WERE SLAIN UPON THE EARTH.

Revelation 18

If it was evil to murder 3000 ordinary people going about their daily routine to pay for the merchandise listed above, the US in it’s reaction magnified that evil by murdering over 125,000 innocent civilians in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan and Yemen going about their daily routines for the same reasons, and having nothing to do with 9/11.

The Americans rationalize those deaths simply as collateral damage and of no real concern, as if they were not human and as innocent as those Americans who died on 9/11. Americans dismiss any culpability without considering God is also the Judge of  Nations.

When American politicians say “God Bless America” it will be in vain until America humbles itself before Almighty God. That Reverend Wright might have been right after all by all the empirical evidence.

Seven years after 9/11 the world witnessed the other shoe dropping. Since the 2600 year old Bible story was written in the Captivity of Babylon, the whole world for the 1st Time at the same Time saw ‘The Writing on the Wall’ as the Global financial meltdown/economic Pearl Harbour-tsunami hit the world in September 2008.

As consumers buy less and less having less and less money left over to spend for their labours, the merchants are becoming increasingly worried no man will buy their merchandise any more in the near term Future in this real world.

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, With what shall we be clothed?
(For after all these things do the Gentiles/unbelievers seek:) for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things.
But first look for the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Matthew 6:31-34

There is so much more involved than just Islamic terrorism as the major Powers of THIS WORLD would have you believe.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of THIS WORLD, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Ephesians 6:12

Someone’s knockin’ at the door, Somebody’s ringin’ the bell
Do me a favor, Open the door and let ’em in

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
To him that OVERCOMES will I grant to SIT WITH ME in my throne, even as I ALSO OVERCAME, and AM set down with my Father in his throne.
He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.      Revelation 3

In the 1st article of this Blog mentioned above, I report on becoming highly visible at The Republican National Convention in Kansas City in the Spirit of ’76.

I report how, to my great surprise and wonder, I was whisked out of a crowd of Ford Republicans in the sardine packed Lobby of the Crown Center Hotel and led to the podium of The President of the United States on a Secret Service restricted balcony.

With my shoulder length hair and beard, sporting a No. 13 jersey standing at The President’s podium, I found myself waving to all the people below and ABC, CBS & NBC broadcasting live. All eyes were looking up to that spot expecting President Ford to be standing there. Unexpectedly and somewhat dumbfounded finding myself in such an unusual position, it did not occur to me to speak into the microphone.

The very image and scene is uniquely revolutionary for any Republican or Presidential Appearance in the Spirit of ’76, or in the years before and since.

I was happy just being in the crowd below. As a Canadian, it was the 1st time I saw a President live, and even though I wasn’t a Republican, I was caught up in the excitement of the crowd. A band was playing the Paul McCartney & Wings tune in the video above.

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it gives light unto all that are in the house.
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 5

‘Divine gifts’ inspire ex-executive to tramp the land with a message

January 14, 2017.

I just watched this 48 minute Documentary on the work done by a renowned Forensic Scientist on the “collapse” of the Towers on 9/11. She claims what happened on 9/11 was the demonstration of unlimited Free Energy, that while used for malevolent purposes on 9/11, the potential of that technology could move the Nations to beat their swords into plow shares and their spears into pruning hooks and the Nations would have no need for War any more.

I watched it alone, wishing I had someone to discuss what we just saw. I would urge you to gather some friends or even one, and watch it together. I’m sure you’ll agree with me it’s worth watching and sharing. This is not a conspiracy video. It is pure Scientific investigation based on solid evidence.

We were blinded to what we saw by the MSM in the saturation coverage saying all Day  over and over again, ‘the buildings collapsed because of the fire, so that’s was we saw.

This video restores our sight to the reality of what we all saw with our own eyes on 9/11, solid steel turned to dust in the air before hitting the ground.

Catastrophic Terrorism: Tackling the New Danger

IMAGINING THE TRANSFORMING EVENT

In December 1998, Former US Defence Secretary Ash Carter, US Undersecretary of Defence John Deutch and Philip Zelikow, Executive Director of the 9/11 Commission, colluded to write this in Foreign Affairs Journal,

A successful attack with weapons of mass destruction could certainly take thousands, or tens of thousands, of lives. If the device that exploded in 1993 under the World Trade Center had been nuclear, or had effectively dispersed a deadly pathogen, the resulting horror and chaos would have exceeded our ability to describe it.

Such an act of catastrophic terrorism would be a watershed event in American history. It could involve loss of life and property unprecedented in peacetime and undermine America’s fundamental sense of security, as did the Soviet atomic bomb test in 1949.

Like Pearl Harbor, this event would divide our past and future into a before and after. The United States might respond with draconian measures, scaling back civil liberties, allowing wider surveillance of citizens, detention of suspects, and use of deadly force. More violence could follow, either further terrorist attacks or U.S. counterattacks.

I find it curious it happened just like that 3 years later, and one of the Authors was able to control what information the 9/11 Commission was able to see?

From: “I’m As Mad As Hell and I’m Not Going To Take It Anymore” In The Spirit Of ’76 – To: “We Have Had It” In The Spirit of ’11


As the struggle to make ends meet, feed our families, keep a roof over our heads, pay for a rising cost of living, with stagnant or falling income, forces and pressures are building that are making more and more people  feel like Mr. Beale, “I’m as mad as Hell, and I’m not going to take it anymore” from the 1976 movie ‘Network.’

The words Mr. Beal spoke in 1976 were prophetic and Timeless, and are just as True for the realities of Today

Powerful and rich Mr. Jensen delivers his ‘corporate cosmology’ to the Mad Prophet of the Airways in the link below. Only with the benefit of hindsight can we see the 1976 movie was prophetic and current for our Time 36 years later as the world wakes up to see and realize the Global Corporatocracy that has consolidated power and control over every material aspect in the lives of the people-consumers of this world.

Unawares to me, earlier that Saturday, March 5, before I uploaded this report later that night, Michael Moore spoke to the Protesters in Madison, Wisconsin.

His speech contained similar themes to those in this 1976 movie ‘Network.” At the 19 minute mark he had the crowd chanting, “We have had it” a thought very similar to “I’m as mad as Hell, and I’m not going to take it anymore.”

I was happy to discover the Michael More video the next day, as in the Spirit transcending National boundaries, Space and Time.

This article was the lead paragraphs in the article  ‘TV & POPULAR CULTURE: IDOLS, ADVERTISING AND UNREAL REALITY’ posted on March 5.

This Blog, being a work in progress, I thought it better to separate that  article which was much too long for a Society accustomed to 30 second sound bytes, with attention deficit disorder to greater or lessor degrees, and give it a new current title.

The following video from the 70’s is strong evidence the more things change, the more they remain the same.
